Joyce Ballantyne (1918 - 2006) - Best known for the iconic Coppertone cocker and kid ad which graced ads and billboards for many years. Early work for Rand McNally maps. Moved to Stevens/Gross studio where she was influenced by Haddon Sundblom and befriended and worked with Gil Elvgren (and probably others like AI Moore, Coby Whitmore, Thornton Utz, and Al Buell, all of whom remained friends)

Edward D'Ancona was a prolific pin-up artist who produced hundreds of enjoyable images, almost nothing is known about his background. He sometimes signed his paintings with the name "D'Amarie", but his real name appears on numerous calendar prints published from the mid 1930s through the mid 1950s, and perhaps as late as 1960
